Psychological Treatment

Red Bank, New Jersey

We believe each person's experience with an eating disorder is unique, and treatment should be tailored to their specific needs.

For this reason, the psychological treatment process begins with a comprehensive assessment that provides a detailed understanding of the individual’s circumstances necessary to develop a personalized treatment plan. A personalized approach allows for targeted interventions and strategies that resonate with the individual, increasing the effectiveness of the treatment and supporting long-term recovery.

Our psychological approaches include a combination of the following:

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Helps the client identify and challenge distorted thoughts and beliefs related to body image, food, and weight.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Combines elements of CBT with mindfulness techniques and emphasizes emotional regulation by teaching the client adaptive coping skills.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Helps promote psychological flexibility and acceptance of difficult thoughts and emotions.
Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)

Focuses on the impact of relationships and interpersonal difficulties on eating disorders to help improve communication and problem-solving skills.
Family Therapy (FT)

Recommended, when appropriate, to help identify and address family factors that may contribute to the onset and maintenance of the eating disorder; to acknowledge and provide psychoeducation on the vital role of family support in treatment and recovery from eating disorders.

OUR APPROACH

Our therapists deeply understand eating disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions.

In addition, they have specialized training and experience in evidence-based treatment methods. A holistic approach is always taken to address the eating disorders' physical, psychological, emotional, and social aspects. We recognize that eating disorders are complex conditions that affect multiple aspects of a person's life.

Psychotherapy methods play a crucial role in treating eating disorders and aim to address the underlying psychological factors, distorted thoughts, and emotional challenges associated with these conditions.

Through empathy and compassion, our therapists help clients feel heard, validated, and understood, creating a safe and non-judgmental space for healing. We hope to empower clients to increase their commitment to their treatment process and realize they are not alone on their recovery journey. We aim to promote healthy coping mechanisms, improve self-esteem, enhance interpersonal relationships, and foster overall well-being.
